🧐 Club sells season tickets for matches 200 years in advance

Such an extraordinary ticket offer has probably never been seen by any of us. The champion of the League of Ireland – the top Irish football league –, the Shamrock Rovers, has introduced their new season tickets. The special thing about them is that the tickets are not just valid for one season.

The underlying problem: Fans would have to wait a whole two centuries after the 2026/27 season to use the ticket again. The tickets are valid for the 2026 season – and then not again until the year 2226, which is in exactly two hundred years.

The reason for these anniversary tickets: Last season, the Shamrock Rovers won the championship for the 22nd time and the FAI Cup for the 26th time.

As the club writes on its website, fans can secure these tickets for the upcoming season and store them in a safe place at the end of the season so that their great-great-great-great-grandchildren can use them again in 2226. An interesting thought – and it will be exciting to see how many of these tickets are actually used a second time, even though none of us will be around to witness it.
